Spinpoint F4 HD204UI 2TB 5400 RPM working good so far
There was a recent deal at NewEgg on the SAMSUNG Spinpoint F4 HD204UI 2TB 5400 RPM 32MB drives, so I decided to risk it as opposed to the other WD & Seagate 2tb drives. I installed them, upgraded the ...
Does anyone know how long we might have to wait for a result on the F4's?
I'm getting a little desperate. I was looking to upgrade, and I'm definitely not going the way of WD with all the extra work. Plus I'm using mac. Just big headache.
I've been following the posts. Had to have some sort of tech refresh, as things have moved on etc. And what should happen, one of my Seagate 1.5's decide to go mad on the Relocation Sector count. Jumped from 15 to 144 overnight. I'm just testing it with an old xp machine with seatools etc. Maybe it's ok, maybe not. But I could do with a tad more space.
The Samsung just looks about the best option that I can see. Anyone doing alright with these F4's in a Duo. There's a couple of posts with people using them in Ultras and NV's, but anyone got success with a Duo and these disks?
